I can’t really find a good reason why I have found it difficult to get some writing done recently, but today I did get some writing done. Yes, I am very tired. I have a very demanding day job, which I thoroughly enjoy but it does drain me. I’ve had some really silly things crop up which put me off my stride, but tonight nothing did. I got home, ate dinner, showered and then got cracking despite the day’s fatigue slowly setting in. That’s what I need to do though, I need to be able to write when I am tired or stressed out and so on. What I’ve written tonight might not be very good, or very many words but it does fill in a few details of the story that I am working on but most importantly its words written. It doesnt matter if I delete them tomorrow when I look at the story again, saying that I doubt I’ll do that, my point is, its words written. My mind has thought through aspects of this story and hopefully when I fire up this laptop tomorrow more words will flow.
Editing is something that I have a lot to do also at the moment. My brilliant Beta readers have taken the time to read two of my stories so I need to get those edits done and then get them off for submission. That’s something that I’m going to have a whack at on Friday after work.
I desperately need to catch up on the amazing blogs that I follow as well.

Scott Sigler’s The All-Pro is really getting interesting and if I havent finished reading it by the end of the month then I will be very surprised, or I would have written and edited a lot 🙂
I too have struggled recently to get words on the page. I understand what you’re going through. However, the past few days have been wonderfully productive. I’m getting back into the writing groove.

This week has been hard on me as well, maybe it is the changing of the seasons….?

Hi Chrystalyn, I hadn’t thought about that. The weather here has been a little erratic of late. I know when the evenings are lighter I do feel more alive if that makes sense 🙂

Perfect sense, because I often feel the same. Our weather has been nutty too, but that is normal for here 😀
